Indians designated hitter Jason Giambi will be activated on Tuesday and could play in the team's home game that night against the Detroit Tigers, according to a Monday tweet from Paul Hoynes of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. Hoynes was citing information from team manager Terry Francona.

He's currently in a slump, failing to record a single hit this season on 11 plate appearances and only batting .183 in 71 games last season. He had just nine home runs on the year in 2013 and 31 RBI in 186 at-bats. Cleveland re-signed the five-time All-Star to a non-roster, minor league contract last year.
